GLORY OF HANUMANJI – PART - I

Hanuman is considered as siranjaeevi (to live eternally). He is the

monkey God, strong, full of valour, with various skills and powers.

At the same time, he is wise, a great gnani, yogi and a brahmachari.

He had only one thought that of serving his Lord Rama with utmost

humility and devotion. He is known as Siriya Thiruvadi. He is

considered to be an amsam of Lord Siva. He is known by various names -

Hanuman - (His jaw & cheek had gone in when struck by the Vajrayudha

of Indra), Anumandhayya - (in Karnataka), Aanjaneyalu - (in Andhra

Pradesh), Aanjaneyan - (son of Anjana), Maruthi - (son of Vaayu - in

Maharashtra), Anumandhan, Vaayunandhan, Kesarinandhanan (son of

Kesari), Aadhitasishyan and Siriya Thiruvadi (vahanam for Rama).

He is worshipped in the temples as Bhaktha Hanuman & Veera Hanuman.

He is seen seated humbly in front of Rama vigrahmas in the Rama

sannadhis. There are also separate temples for Hanuman. As Bhaktha

Hanuman he is seen holding both hands together in prayer. He is seen

as Veera Hanuman, holding the mace in one hand & the sanjeevi

parvatham in the other. Devotees are blessed with courage, valour,

wisdom, gnanam when they pray to him. He is very happy when he hears

the Rama namam. Hence, repeating the Rama namam is one of the best

ways to get his blessings.

Worship & offerings

Anjaneyar is worshipped with offerings of butter & Vadaimalai (a

garland of vadais). Butter is applied to the mouth & tail of the

Hanuman vigrahams in temples. Devotees pray to the Lord & apply dots

of kumkumam to his tail (from the starting point to the tip) in the

images kept at home.

The Birth of Hanuman

 

In heaven there was a very famous apsara (courtesan, dancing girl)

named Punjikasthala. On a certain occasion she insulted one of the

rishis. As a result she got a curse that she would be born as a

female monkey. After her birth she was named Anjana. Her husband's

name was Kesari. Because Anjana had no son, she began to do penance.

She gave up eating and drinking. She prayed to god Vayu not only to

get her a son, but that he should be powerful and swift, just like

god Vayu himself.

Vayu answered: "Tathastu", "Amen", "Let it be as you desire."

In the morning of the first 14th day of Chaitra in a cave on the

Rushyamuk mountain, Anjana gave birth to her son Hanuman. Soon after

his birth Hanuman came out of the cave and, as the sun was rising, he

flew towards the sun to eat its reddish rays.

As he flew towards the sun, Rahu stood in his way. But with a stroke

of his tail he pushed Rahu aside. Then came Ketu, but he also was

removed, and Hanuman flew ahead towards the sun. Then heaven became

worried. Indra mounted his elephant "Airavat", and wondered in his

mind, "Who is this extraordinary child going out to eat the sun?"

Indra became angry and flung his weapon "vajra" (thunderbolt) on

Hanuman, who was caught unawares. He was hit on his left knee, and

fell on the top of a high mountain.

 

 

Shri Hanuman Chalisa

 

If any desire is also is there by reading it will be fulfilled. If u

want ram bahakti u can read this with which we can get ram bhakti .

There is treasure hidden in this hanuman chalisa. If we want to read

his glories we should know who is hanuman etc. while giving

introduction of humanu we should know his rupa (Vanar - Pasu jathi)

Swaroopa = Brahma swaroopa, where lila of lord rama was there his

relation with him was sevak. While lord ram is brahma swroop. But

was born as son to kausaliya and dasrath. Karma of hanuman = only one

karma it was ram seva. Adarsh = Ram bhakti that too dasya bhakti.

This is special qualities. The tail is not ordinary one it is

brahma pucha. , What is guna = Nirahamkar that is the glory of shri

hanumanji. In many case u can see many qualities but they do have

ahamkar, but hanumanji is nirahamkar.

 

Upasana means bringing the qualities of the lord whom we adore.

Upasana means to stay near . So when we want to do upasana of

hanuman we should get the qualities of hanuman at least some .

 

Doha

Shri Guru Charan Saroj Raja, Nij Mana Mukura Sudhar,

Varano Raghuvar Vimal Jasu, Jo Dayak Phal Chaar.

 

With the help of sat Guru charan dhuli , we can cleanse our Mirror

mind and the we can sing the vimal jas of Raguvar (Lord hanuman)

here Tulsi das mentions hanuman as Raguvar. This Doha comes in Ram

Charit Manas in Ayodhya Kanda where it is has two parts one is oorvag

& uttarag. Where the hero for oorvag is Lord Rama and for Uttarag is

Devotee Bharth so they are called Raguvar. Those who r born in

Raghuvamash. Here Hanuman's glory are being sung they how this

Raghuvamsh. Here tulsidas show the relationship of hanuman in the

family of Lord Ramchandraji. We can also see sometimes in our house

we do have servants with whom we treat them as our own people and

also brothers of same family do fight here it is to mention that Lord

rama and sita have accepted hanuman as his son . In sundarkan mother

sita says this words.

 

Hai suta kapi saba tumhahi samana, jatudhana ati bhata balavana

 

Mother sita gets a doubt about hanuman saying that all the monkeys

are of this same size where hanuman went in small size just like

mosquito, then he shows is virat roop.

 

By singing the glories of ministers or big people we can get only job

or some small petty things. But when we sing the glory of hanuman we

can get all the four fruits ie., Darma, artha , kama, moksha. We

cannot come out of delusion which is head of the family (Moha mool)

out of which everything comes unless until we wash the feets of

Satguru and divine people.

 

Budhi Heen Tanu Janike, Sumiro Pawan Kumar,

Bala Budhi Vidya Dehu Mohi, Harahu Kalesh Vikar

 

I now sing the gloryof Pawan Kumar (Hanumanji)for what " Bal, Budhi

vidya Dehu Mohi for what removing sare Kalesh Vikar what are all

these, Kam Krod Irsha Loob etc., Kalesh what is 7 types Avidya,

Asmita, Raag, Dweesh, Aviveka how can we remove this we require Bal,

what is bal when we r facing rag and dweesh we become nirbal. Even

the Bodybuilder also get weak when he faces rag and dweesh. We

require Bal for Dharma Palan. Budi and vidhya what is it? Budhi is

the means through which we can acquire vidhya. Supreme vidya is

atma vidya. So only with budhi we can acquire this vidhya.

 

Kindly forgive this small devotee if any mistakes is there. Kindly

send ur corrections so that I can learn. I will post the remaining

parts in due course.

 

With due respects
